The MYAC team is heading to Hickory Creek Nursing Home today for a little "BINGO and Baked Goods" fun on a Sunday afternoon! This will be our second visit this year.
The students really enjoy spending time with the residents there, and I think the residents kind of like it, too.

If you are in favor of this youth-driven project, please consider attending the next Board of Works meeting on Tuesday, March 12th at 8:30am at City Hall (Council Chambers) to show your support!
